Year :Since 2003
Location :Worldwide project
TO WRITE THE HUMAN RIGHTS is a worldwide artistic project which includes a pedagogical method. It can be implemented on various scales: a large subway station, on city walls, on a school wall, in museums, as urban furniture, in parks, and at home with families.
TO WRITE THE HUMAN RIGHT IN PORTUGAL – TO WRITE THE CHARTER OF FUNDAMENTAL RIGHTS ON THE WALLS OF THE CITIES is to rethink the people’s social role and their participation to create a harmonious life between beings and the world. Through art, its purpose is to raise awareness of the rights and duties of human beings among themselves and for the earth. This project is accessible to all those who, by their enthusiasm and philosophy of hope, wish to become project leaders by sharing it and creating it with their friends, community, responsible institutions, teachers of their children’s schools, and collectives.
Why Portugal? We established a partnership with the CEIJD of Lisbon, European Information Center Jacques Delors with the aim of teaching through art, the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union, to young Portuguese citizens. The CIEJD has thus become our project leader in Portugal for the TO WRITE THE CHARTER OF FUNDAMENTAL RIGHTS ON THE WALLS OF THE CITIES projects.
TO WRITE THE HUMAN RIGHTS is designed as 2 distinct and complementary projects:
1-The paper workshop:
allows you to work with a large number of participants at no cost, as you only need paper and pencils. Several activities can result, including a contest and the selection of the best drawings. See our pedagogical kit available for free access here.
2-The ceramic workshop and design of a public artwork:
If the project initiator seeks to create a perennial ceramic artwork and obtains public and/or private funding, Inscrire will organize a participatory workshop. The artwork is then installed permanently in public spaces. We usually organize the two workshops one after another, which allows us to reach a large number of participants. Information available upon request by email.
PROJECTS
The projects built in ceramics in the different cities are the result of a pedagogical work of reflection and awareness on the European Charter of Rights developed with our methodology and addressed to high school students.
The project has been implemented in many towns and villages in Portugal. The CIEJD makes contact with a city and a school interested in the project. Our local team associated with the CIEJD travels a week in the school and works with different classes to complete the two steps of our methodology.
The teachers are always very active during the teaching and ceramics workshops, an ancestral tradition in Portugal. The paintings are always installed on the walls of each school.
